The Fall Cusp Event at Neiman Marcus

The month of September brings many things; cooler weather, the beginning of football season and (my personal favorite) fashion month. While I've been keeping up with the latest styles from New York, Paris and Milan Fashion Week, I got to talk fall fashion with local trendsetters at this month's Cusp Event at the Neiman Marcus in Bellevue, WA.

The event gave partygoers a look at fall apparel and accessory trends curated by featured style bloggers, tasty treats, tunes to dance to by DJ Mixtress and a few fashion-forward photo opps, of course! My favorite pieces included earthy tones, color blocking and tons of texture. What style trends are you loving this season?

But a party isn't truly a party if you're riding solo. Luckily my friend and fellow fashion lover, Maggie, was free to attend the Cusp event with me! We perused picks from Seattle influencers like Megan Little of Sort of Style and Brittany Streissguth of Pumps & Plaid, while sipping a few specialty cocktails. After all, who can say no to champagne and san pellegrino?!

To show my personal fall style, I wore my favorite Wendy booties from Grey City Shoes and a bell sleeve dress I received from Dressfo. This patterned dress was the perfect piece for this event and I received it very quickly after ordering it from their site. However, I would like to note that the apparel is manufactured in China, so be careful when ordering and sizing because items may arrive slightly different than how they appear on the site. If you're interested in seeing these pieces or others from these retailers, you can shop this look below.
